“It’s just like driving by a car wreck without rendering aid," Graham said.

...

“He’s a bully," Graham said. "He intimidates people by calling them bad names. Like every other bully, he’ll meet his fate only when good people say, 'Enough.' Donald Trump, enough already. Take your ball and go home.”

[question everything]

1. Too late

Trump is following that idiot who said "you lie" during the State of the Union address; the teabaggers who showed up at Obama appearances carrying guns; the rest of them who were heaping contempt ever since Obama was elected, even Helms who claimed that he could not assure the safety of Bill Clinton if he visited South Carolina.

The old party, yes, the "country club" party would at least respect the office of the president. Not any longer.

And, you can add Ted Cruz to the list.

4. Lindsey No, no..that's Not the case

at all, imo.
The GOP has Been like this for Decades...You, Lindsey- have been part of the GOP for Decades...it's just no one bluntly spoke of your (GOP) real plans/intent/goals. It has been simply mostly hidden from Direct truthful exposure-thanks to MSM.


Trump Explicitly Exposes that which they Already are. The Damage is from their Own decades long policies and actions.

And All that happened long before the "trump factor" was even a remote possibility.

Stuff the GOP believes and the harmful consequences from Their Policies-like what we see and feel now-couldn't and didn't happen overnight. It's long been in the works..since even before Reagan. So, If Graham believes this is "new" and just getting started-If that was the case...Trump would have a near Zero impact on the GOP.
So, dear sen graham...you are part of what Is happening To the GOP today.

7. When the bullies become the bullied.

The best reality TV show to hit the networks since season 1 of Survivor...The GOP Presidential Primary - No Holds Barred Edition!

I don't usually watch reality TV, but even I can't wait for the next episode of this new series!

8. Trump's giving the GOP Bullies a taste of their own medicine.

And they aren't liking it.

[neverforget]

9. What does it say about the Republican Party that he has around 20% support?

I'd say he's a feature not a bug

10. Good. I'm enjoying it immensely. N/t.

11. Does he mean to imply they could get worse?

That would take a lot of hard and dedicated work.
